I had Vaser Liposuction on my inner and outer thighs and knees and it was the worst decision I ever made. I have been left with large 'shark bite' looking areas where too much fat was removed and in these areas you can feel muscle with absolutely no fat layer left. The procedure itself was extremely painful, I had bite marks left on my hands for days from trying to stop myself screaming. I informed Dr Chambers that I was in considerable pain but was told "the longer you tolerate it the better the result". I followed my aftercare to the letter and while wearing the compression garments was really pleased with the results until it was time to remove them. I wish I researched more and never went with Dr Chambers and am currently looking for another surgeon to try and do revision surgery.

Dear Abbi_28,
We are very sorry that you are dissatisfied with the result of your procedure. Over the years, our clinic has treated thousands of patients who have been highly satisfied with their outcomes. We accept, however, that cosmetic surgery is not a perfect science, and that on rare occasions even the very best surgeons will have outcomes that do not always meet with patient expectations.
We are by choice a small, bespoke clinic priding ourselves on our one-to-one care and excellent patient services. We take all sentiments of dissatisfaction very seriously, and will always continue to engage with any patient who wishes to address their concerns and explore options.
It seems that you have not raised your complaint directly with us, and as such we have not had a serious opportunity to evaluate the issues you have raised in your review. We would urge you to contact our clinic so we can explore your options together.
In closing, we view all comments, suggestions and complaints as important feedback and as valuable opportunities to learn and to improve our patient care and services.
Regards,
Dr Alex Chambers

The same thing happened to me at Dr Alex Chambers hands. There are several apparently devastated women on here all reporting very similar experiences and injuries sustained whilst undergoing Vaser Liposuction by Dr Chambers. I would just say to anyone considering this, to not do it under any circumstances.
You may want to change your body now but retrospectively I'd give anything to turn back the clock and put my life back to where it was.
Everyday I have to look at my poor burnt & ''shark bitten legs' . I am totally devastated my life is ruined

I too had a terrible experience (vaser on stomach, love handles/ flanks) I tried contacting her office several times but was ignored and I could never get hold of anyone. I'd rather have my fat back and the lumpy uneven mess I have now, I absolutely cannot wear a bikini since the procedure - no wonder she was sued in 2017 for poor vaser on another patient, I am surprised there aren't more litigation cases
Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you find support in the community.
